Saturday, during the day, was mostly spent sleeping. And dosing myself with herbal tea.
Well, and some self-teaching of the Python. I discovered that the book I've been using is out of date. I mean, I knew it was published in 2000. I just didn't know the wxPython namespace had been completely changed since then.
